We just returned from a 4-night stay in this apartment. The apartment is a quick walk to the subway and grocery stores and only 15 minutes to Times Square. We enjoyed our stay, but the apartment is definitely older than it appears in the pictures. The floors are very worn. It was mostly clean but had mildew on the shower curtain. There were four towels, two of which were old and worn. We never met the owners, but a lady just entered the apartment with keys at 9:00 am the morning we were leaving. We had arranged with Viet to leave by 10:00 am. She just came in at 9:00 am and said the next people were on their way. For the price, we were happy with the apartment. We were out touring most of the day and just used it as a place to sleep at night.

Owner's Response: Thanks for taking the time to give us feedback on the apartment, it really helps us improve our performance. Sorry about the shower curtains and towels, it's something we generally check before our guests arrives but did not get a chance to do for your stay. We usually have plenty of towels and extra linens for the bed and sofa bed. Our housekeeper mistakenly came at 9am but was scheduled to start at 10am.

Our family of 4 stayed here 6/13-17/12. We enjoyed the apt. with a computer and very accessible to many NYC sites. The Bedroom was great, sofa couch ok for kids (I don't think adults would sleep well on it though), kitchen fine, bathroom big enough but the tub did not drain well, clean overall but could use some TLC- good for the price. 4 days was ok- don't think I'd stay longer. The AC units blew mildly cool air- glad the outside temp. was only in the high 70's-low 80's when there. Close grocery store was nice and the owners answered many questions promptly before for we arrived.

Owner's Response: Thanks Sharon for staying with us. We have since replaced the portable AC unit in the living room with a large window unit and it's now very comfortable in our current heat wave. We also have a mattress pad for the sofa bed to make it more comfortable.

The apartment was in a great location; we were able to get ahold of the apartment owners relatively quickly and easily - they responded to emails within a day, and phone calls immediately.

We were a little unsure about the key pickup and final payment, but everything went smoothly, and things were conveniently located to the apartment!

Where to start - We enjoyed every second of our two week Thanksgiving vacation in Viet & Liezl's Murray Hill apartment!! We are return vacationers to NY though have never stayed in this area. We just fell in love with the size, ammenities and decor of the apartment, not to mention all the closet space! We loved that everyday we walked out and saw the Empire State buliding and that two grocery stores were a skip away. We had all the needed items to cook a home made Thanksgiving dinner, thank you for the extra plates & glasses :)
We became regulars during our visit at a near by pub and always felt so comfortable and safe getting home and relaxing in 'our very own' NY apartment!!
Next time we visit, my in laws said they want to stay at this apartment instead on the Upper West Side. They'll have to arm wrestle me for it!!
Thank you again Viet & Liezl, you make coming back to NYC so easy & memorable.
Peace & Love~

I was with 2 friends in this apartment for 8 days. Everything was perfect: size ( it's big, more than I expected), location ( subway very near, Empire State is just in front, bars and restaurants very near), Computer with internet ( perfect to organise your trip), beds are big and confortable, kitchen ( it's got everything you need to cook).

I recommend this apartment if you want to have a perfect trip in NYC

The apartment is very good located in the city. The subway is near and there are several restaurants and pharmacies in the environs. Then it is near to the Empire State Building, to Herald Square, to Penn Station and to the Madison Square Garden. We went in these places on foot and it was very comfortable! Viet and Liezl were very helpful and hospitable. The accommodation was well stocked, there were also dryer, bath soap and the iron too! The listing description regarding location is accurate and the listing photos accurately reflect the rental's appearance and amenities. The only negative thing was a little mouse that paid us a visit, but it is usual in New York on the ground floor!

First of all, you will not find anyone more responsive and accommodating as Viet and Liezl. I did an extensive search for properties in NYC and their listings were all in perfect locations within the city, clean, and fully stocked. This apartment is right next to 2nd Ave Deli which is one of my favorite delis in the city and just blocks away from the Empire state building. As a visitor to the city, I am not sure why you would even want to stay in a hotel. Though, at the last minute, our plans changed, Viet and Liezl were incredibly understanding and flexible. Since I come to the city fairly often, I am excited I have a go to person for apartment accommodations. I'm sorry Viet and Liezl...you are stuck with me! I will be staying in one of your rentals soon.

A friend and I rented this apartment for a week and it was great, really near the subway and wonderful restaurants. It also helped to have the computer to be able to find things. Viet and Liezl were really accommodating. Thanks - and you have a great city!
